Tom Brady wants fans to know just how pumped he is for the New England Patriots’ AFC divisional round game Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. And the quarterback, with the help of fellow Boston sports stars, posted an excellently intense hype video on social media.

Brady, along with Red Sox’s Mookie Betts, Celtics’ Jayson Tatum and Bruins’ Charlie McAvoy, narrate the hype video of Patriots highlights by reciting lines from A New Refutation of Time by 20th century Argentinian writer Jorge Luis Borges.

Repeating lines from the essay, the Boston stars say through the video:

Brady: Our destiny is not frightful by being unreal

Betts: It it frightful because it is irreversible and ironclad

McAvoy: Time is the substance we are made of

Tatum: Time is a river which sweeps me along

Brady: But I am the river

Tatum: It is a tiger which destroys me

Brady: But I am the tiger

McAvoy: It is a fire which consumes me

Brady: But I am the fire

It’s a little different than the hype video the Patriots tweeted Saturday and wildly different from the hype photo New England wide receiver Julian Edelman recently shared, which is actually a little frightening.
